Why I Love Finding New Blogs

Posted by Simon in Blogging with No Responses Yet

I had a bit of a crazy day yesterday. By mid-afternoon I had added five new blogs to my feed reader. This is quite a big deal for me as I’ve already got quite a few subscriptions in my feed reader, far too many in fact. But nevertheless, I still love finding new blogs. You know that when you add them there will be a nice collection of back posts sitting in the feed waiting for you to explore. Many of these posts then link to other content. It’s like opening a package, inside that package is a present along with another package, and inside that package is another present and another package. The number of presents you get is only limited by the amount of time you have to spend opening them. So everytime I find a new blog that seems worth my time, it feels like some strange Christmas morning. So which blogs did I add? Read on. (more…)

The same is true for sites and blogs, without links to expand on ideas, provide further reading and guide your readers to usefull content, a blog can become a very unwelcoming [...]

  • Free Money for Bloggers? Yes! But Invest it.

    Posted by Simon in Blogging, Tips with No Responses Yet

    I just received a very interesting email from the Text Link Ads people. After the recent “merger” with Auction Ads, they are offering $25 to Text Link Ads account holders who sign up to Auction Ads. That’s $25 dollars, essentially for free. I’d recommend doing this right not, and then following the [...]

  • Apple Dropping the Ball?

    Posted by Simon in Uncategorized with No Responses Yet

    Usually during a product launch, Apple are meticulous. Everything is in its’ place, and everything looks great. However, in the wake of the iPod Touch launch, a product which will literally change the industry forever (trust me), there have been a few mishaps. Very un-Apple-like.
    The first problem I came across was when [...]

  • New iPods - UK Prices and Release Dates

    Posted by Simon in Apple, Technology with 5 Responses

    Apple announced today that the entire iPod line has been updated. The changes range from the minor, to the overhaul, to the completely new. So whilst those over in the states are chatting about the new toys on their iPhones (I swear I’m not bitter), what are us limeys to do? Well, [...]

  • Running Multiple Quicksilver Commands with 1 Trigger

    Posted by Simon in Apple, Tips with No Responses Yet

    While Quicksilver is phenomenally powerfull, there are some limitations. One of the most frustrating is the inability to chain commands together. And when I say commands, I’m not talking about the individual panes in Quicksilver, but the fully blown, all singing, all dancing actions. For example, in my five things that make [...]

  • 5 Features that NEED to be in the new iPod

    Posted by Simon in Apple, Media, Technology with 2 Responses

    It looks pretty certain that we’re going to see a new iPod next Wednesday, hopefully 2. Multiple pictures have surfaced of the new iPod Nano, which looks like the current iPod Nano with the shins removed. But what of the big iPod? The one people keep on referring to as the iPod [...]

  • A Fresher Look

    Posted by Simon in Blogging, Oak Innovations with No Responses Yet

    You may have noticed that the site’s design has been tweaked a bit.  Specifically, I’ve tried to go for a much easier to read colour scheme, which also happens to be much lighter than the old one.
    Hopefully there aren’t any bugs as I’ve kept the main structure and layout of the site largely the same.  [...]

  • Running the iTunes Vs NBC Numbers

    Posted by Simon in Apple with No Responses Yet

    There’s been such a fuss made over the last few days regarding this NBC Vs Apple fiasco. Beyond the obvious fact that the NBC execs have completely lost the plot and effectively asked people to pirate their shows instead of paying for them, there are some questions that no one seems to be asking.
